To get to know Saint Claire, honored here with a statue, we must, geographically speaking, travel from the Manche region, south over the Alps, to the Italian region of Umbria, and, in chronological terms, return to the 13th century. "Santa Chiara" (usually referred to in German as "Clare of Assisi") from that city is the second great figure in Christianity, alongside "San Francesco." While the men who gathered around Francis proclaimed the Word of God as preachers, Claire and her fellow sisters lived in seclusion in a convent near the Church of San Damiano, outside the gates of the city of Assisi. Clara was born in (or around) the year 1193 and died in 1253. Her general feast day in the calendar of saints is the day of her death, August 11, in all major Christian denominations. There are also regional or order-specific feast days.

The small church that hikers encounter north of Saint-Michel-de-Montjoie is built of the stone typical of this region. A look inside the chapel reveals that the apse houses not just one statue (often either a cross or the saint chosen as patron), but five. + Centrally located and slightly elevated, we see the Virgin Mary holding her son Jesus in her arms. Both are facing the viewer and wear a crown. + To the left of the viewer, but to the right of the Madonna, and thus in a place of honor, we find her fiancé, Saint Joseph, Jesus' foster father. + Next to him, we encounter the Archangel Michael, who, with his spear, slays a dragon lying at his feet – always the symbol of evil in Christian iconography. + On the other side of Mary stands the Apostle Peter, to whom, according to the Gospel accounts, Christ entrusted the keys of the Kingdom of Heaven. + On the far right from the viewer's perspective is another saint, whose name I unfortunately cannot identify. However, his dark habit identifies him as a member of a religious order.
